Y1 - 2015 N1 - T2 - Gynecologic Oncology: Clinical Practice and Surgical Atlas AB - Metastases to the genital tract may occur as a result of recognizable widely disseminated disease from another site or as an isolated lesion. In the latter case, it may be difficult to distinguish between a primary tumor of the gynecologic tract or metastases to the gynecologic tract from a nongynecologic site. Because treatment planning and appropriateness of surgery may be dictated by the primary site of the tumor, it is important to make the distinction between primary and metastatic disease. This chapter focuses on common sites of metastases to the gynecologic tract, characteristic clinical presentations, and radiologic and pathologic considerations that may be clinically helpful in treatment planning.
